If David Moyes does get another season at the club he simply has to impress. No more transitional seasons. And he may spend more money this summer than Sir Fergie ever did in one window in order to get it right.

If the speculation is to be believed Moyes wants every midfielder this side of Siberia. He may also look for wingers and a centre back. With the Luke Shaw deal looking possible Manchester United will press on with midfield acquisitions.

The Daily Mail today opines that Manchester United are closing in on a young prodigy from that list:

Woodward is also working hard to finalise a big-money move for Sporting Lisbon midfielder William Carvalho.

Sportsmail revealed last month that United had opened negotiations with the Portuguese club for the 21-year-old and they have since been talking to Sporting about finding a way round a £37m buy-out clause that they believe to be excessive.
